Could also be a combination of both ideas.
Turbo sucking in air + engine oil mist (PCV/catch can) + dust particles? (Air inlet tract)
Then when backing off throttle at low boost (No bov operating) the combo above is coming back out. But then again there doesn't appear to be any oily crap being exhausted from the bov when it does go off.
My opinion is still to vent the Catch can to atmo, cap the vac nipple on the air inlet piping and give the turbo a thorough clean. Maybe a new air filter as well.
What type of filter are you running in that airbox?
It would be highly unlikely that it is turbo related as it looks like very early stages of what happened to the old turbo. Must be caused by something that has been present since the first turbo (when half cut purchased)
